All Students Present with instruments; Trumpets did not bring instruments

What we did

• Winds
  • Began assessing performance targets of line 25
  • Explanation of concert key and step relationship in the exercise
  • Complete line 28 as an ear training exercise; "Can they determine the line should end on the tonic?"
  • Began Let's Go Band tutorial
• Percussion
  • Assessment of Lines 16, 17 and 23 on bells

What to do

• All students should be able to meet performance targets from lines 17, 23, 25 (Kaprie and Austin can continue to 34 and 39)
  • Preston and Rylie need to practice more at home for proficiency or mastery of their lines; They are close but inconsistent playing the right partials
• Drums- meet performance targets for Haskell-Harr lesson 7; Bells- line 23, 25

Looking Ahead

• Meet performance targets for lines 30, 34, 36, 39, 46 and 48
• Concert A and low B
• Reading, counting and playing eighth note rhythms
• Playing "Let's Go Band" and other All-City Music
